2011 Map of Foster Butte

About this map

Foster Lake and the surrounding high desert terrain of Lake County define this landscape during the early 21st century. The map reveals a network of remote ranching and grazing land, where water sources are vital landmarks for navigation and local industry. Distinctive features like McCall Dipping Vat Spring and Sherlock Dipping Vat Spring point to a history of livestock management in the region. The geography transitions from the open stretches of New England Flat and Foster Flat Meadow to more defined topographic points like Foster Butte. Small, isolated water bodies such as La Brie Lake and named drainages including Duncan Creek and Benny Creek provide the primary structural elements for this part of the Oregon interior, where human presence is marked by named settlements like Deer Head.
